Time Out ChicagoAugust 2, 2014The dinner prices reflect this spot’s downtown address and swank decor, so we like to take advantage of the daily lunch buffet, one of the best in town for sheer variety and freshness. Read more
At dinner order half or a full tandoori and some butter nan and veg samosas as appetizers. Chicken Chili, lamb vindaloo if you like it spicy. Rice on the side ( or a chicken biryani)
Patti HonackiOctober 5, 2013OMG fabulous. I got the Lamb Pasadan. Good creamy, not-too-spicy entree. The lamb was cooked to perfection. Their Italian red wines are also surprisingly good quality for the meager price. Go go go!
T SDecember 15, 2018Super nice location. Nice food for vegetarians. Bad chicken. Super nice staff & great value. Open Boufet for 14$ only per person.
Jean WoodardJuly 24, 2014I had never had Indian food before but wanted to try something new for my birthday, and I was not disappointed :) Soooo many choices even for my vegetarian daughter and the prices are very reasonable!
Jordan BishoppJune 2, 2015The dinner for two is a phenomenal deal. Sooo much food and the best tandoori (chicken, lamb & fish in different spices) I've ever had. Highly recommend.
Chris BurkeSeptember 12, 2014Large selection of tropical drinks. Most of the dishes are made mild so you'll have to ask for it spicy. Biryani can be oily. Garlic naan and chicken curry are a safe bet.
Tim MesserschmidtOctober 18, 2014We've ordered various mains and appetizers - overall everything was great. Especially the chicken samosas and the butter chicken can be recommended!
Cindy KurmanMarch 20, 2012Try the Organic Arugula Salad - 3 hour roasted grapes, local apples, spicy walnuts, shaved Parmesan, & walnut vinaigrette is a perfect lunch salad that you can share @lamadiachi $9
ben mNovember 7, 2014Excellent flavors. Come for the lunch buffet. Tandoori chicken and naan comes to every table when you get back from the buffet.
Philip SmithOctober 6, 2014Lamb Vindaloo is very good; it's pretty spicy as is, but if you really like spice have them kick it up a notch!
Chicago magazineApril 18, 2012Fiery Hyderabadi-style mahi-mahi with yogurt and boiled eggs is a must, and for a traditional favorite, the juicy, smoky chicken tandoori is among the best around. Read more
Erika DavisJanuary 8, 2016Lunch buffet is a good deal. If you are really hungry for Indian food then you should take advantage of the lunch buffet.
Tim CullenOctober 26, 2011Awesome chicken Makhani and chicken Tandori. If you like garlic at all then Garlic Naan is out friggin standing. Ignore all the meat Samosa's and go veggie. THERE AWESOME.
Marco HowellMarch 18, 2012This place is great! Get the chicken ka shorba soup app. Want to make you lips sweat? Get the chicken vindaloo. So good paired with a kingfisher beer.
Rob and MarlaJune 3, 2012Amazing! Must haves: chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, basmati rice, basil chicken. Top it all of with a Taj Mahal or Mango Lassi to drink!
Krisha MarcanoAugust 1, 2014Brunch value for sure. $20 got me all I can eat salad, entries, desert, 1 beer, comp Nan and comp 2 piece tandoori chicken.- There is a reason India House gets high marks in Zagat and Yelp. It is that good! Garlic Naan, Chicken Tikki Marsala, and the Mango Lassi all wins! Service is an A+.
AysenNovember 1, 2018I ordered chicken-tikka masala, papdi chat, palak paneer, garlic naan and mango lassi. All were delicious, but palak paneer could be less salty.
Karthik KSeptember 4, 2013Definitely a must visit Indian restaurant in Downtown Chicago! Chicken Zamora n Chilli Lamb top on my menu!
Maria EvansMarch 18, 2012If you're new to Indian, scared of spice and don't know what to order, get #157 Tandoori chicken, a side of saffron rice and naan. YESSSS.
David SmithJuly 22, 2014The feast for two is awesome and could easily feed 4. Get it with the chicken tikka masala.
Somya KalraFebruary 26, 2015I love the food ,ambieance and service.. Its a good experience in all.best place gor authentic indian food
Food is always good and they recently did a complete redesign of the dining space. The result is very nice
Daily lunch buffet is a great way to try a lot of dishes for $15-20.
- There is a reason this place has so many wonderful ratings (and a Zagat). Everything is delish. Garlic Naan, mango Lassi, try them all!
- Cindy KurmanMarch 20, 2012Try the Goat Cheese, Spinach & Woodburning Oven Roasted Tomato Pizza - Sneak peek of April special pizza. Fabulous taste. Awesome pizza @LaMadiaChi. You must try!
Chicago Cab FareOctober 5, 2011Verified authentic by Indian cab drivers. The Rogan Josh Gosht is outstanding. Visit ChicagoCabFare.com for a list of 50+ authentic ethnic restaurants, recommended by cabbies from around the world.
Venugopal VenkatramanAugust 1, 2018The buffet has a decent spread, more veg than non-veg. Their soup was good, an Indian take on tomato soup. The curries were oily, and it was not bad overall.
Jordan CantuJuly 13, 2011The food is amazing. Try the chicken palak with steamed basmati rice. I only wish they'd cut their portions and prices in half.
Jade EnochDecember 22, 2012Come for the lunch buffet, not bad for a huve amount of food downtown! Tastes just like my other home.
Karolina StankuteAugust 3, 2013Good job remodeling this place! Looks such better. Try garlic naan with palak paneer mmmm
Chrystal DownsDecember 12, 2013The orange sauce that comes with the naan is ridiculously good. Couldn't get enough of it.
- Cindy KurmanMarch 20, 2012Try the Bresaola Shaved Fennel, Sweet Peppers, Parmesan - Axing salad. Very shareable.
Natasha BlairAugust 16, 2015Expensive. One appetizer, three vegetarian dishes with rice and Naan. No alcohol. $140 with tip for three people. Come to the lunch buffet for $16.00 instead.
Rosie NewmanAugust 13, 2013Food was so good, great service, classy atmosphere. The Mango lassie and aloo
German KontorovichSeptember 4, 2013Authentic restaurant with wide variaty of excellent veggie dishes
